If you slipped into a coma during Feliciano López and Gilles Müller’s 264-minute match at the 2009 Australian Open, we’re glad you’re back. We have important news. You remember Tribulation, right? The Swedish death metallers who released their debut, The Horror, on the same day as that tennis showdown? They’re basically Fields Of The Nephilim now.
Unbelievable, yeah. Like, imagine if Morbid Angel went industria- another conversation for another time. Point is, shit happens, people change. The quartet mutated across five albums, pinching influence from The Cure, Ozzy Osbourne, Sisters Of Mercy, Watain – liberally, uniquely, tied in a lacy bow by Johannes Andersson’s one-note death-grunts. Then Jonathan Hultén, one of Tribulation’s core songwriters, left.
